October Daily Listing & Promotion Challenge

Welcome to the October 2025 Daily Listing and Promotion Challenge Thread :grin:

The challenge is that you will list and post your item to this thread, then visit all the other participating shops via their daily link AND :heart: that listing in their shop.

It does take a little time each day but it is well worth it because everyone who joins gets the benefit and the group is a lovely supportive place to be.

HOW TO TAKE PART (AND THE RULES)

Post your item for the day to the Challenge thread by copying and pasting the item URL from your Folksy Shop (don’t worry if you are not sure when you start just ask and someone will help). You can post a newly listed item or something already in your shop it does not matter.

On the Challenge thread click on the links for everyone’s posted item, this will take you to the item in their shop, and hit the items :heart: - this gives the listing a brief appearance on the Folksy front page under ‘Popular Right Now’ (this is the main rule for taking part in the Challenge)

The idea is we all do the same for everyone on the thread which gives us all an extra boost, along with virtual hugs and support from everyone in this lovely community.

If you have time you can also promote fellow listers outside of Folksy by pinning on Pinterest, making a Folksy Friday Board, posting on Facebook or Instagram etc.

Don’t forget you can also help by liking/commenting on other peoples group promotions on social media if you can’t post your own.

If you have a Folksy sale while taking part in the Challenge thread post a message on the thread and tag me @FluffStuffCrafts so we can all celebrate and have a happy dance with you. :woman_dancing:

I will keep a tally of sales during the month and will regularly post about these.

Any questions at all, please ask.

Can’t wait to see all the beautiful items shared this month and here’s to lots of Happy :woman_dancing: :man_dancing: Dancing!

Good luck everyone,

Alison, Fluff Stuff Crafts

Good morning,

Thanks for looking after us this month Alison @FluffStuffCrafts hopefully we’ll keep you nice and busy.

Beautiful sunny morning here. The cat has developed a limp so I’m hoping it’s not going to turn into a vet visit. It’s so hard to know when they can’t tell you how they’re feeling.

Good morning everyone, it’s lovely to be back after a break. It’s been good not having the pressure of social media for a month, did a few bits but not much. We had a week in Pembrokeshire for David’s big birthday and the weather was horrendous, gale force winds and torrential rain! We were actually glad to come home :joy:.

Belated happy birthday Sue @SueTrevor, I’m glad you had a good day.

Thank you to Alison @FluffStuffCrafts for hosting this month, I woke up to 2 sales which came in late yesterday evening so I’m not sure if they count or not?

I hope your cat is ok Mel @aquilacrafts, it’s so difficult knowing what’s wrong.

Morning all.

Thank you for hosting this month’s thread Alison @FluffStuffCrafts. Can I report 2 sales please - for The Old Button Supplies shop.

Hope your cat is ok Mel @aquilacrafts and no vets trip needed. We took Felix to the vets yesterday as two claws on his back leg were sticking out (not retracting). He has an infection, rather nasty. Vet costs aside, it’s rather difficult to do the meds as he’s now on antibiotics *2 and pain relief, plus his usual steroids. He won’t take pills, and it’s damn hard to get liquids in his mouth, so I have been disguising his steroids in a daily cat yoghurt.
So I tried the same trick with the new stuff. Yesterday was ok, but it took 4 sachets :face_with_peeking_eye:
Unfortunately, he point blank refused the antibiotic laced yoghurt this morning. I can’t persevere as I need the yoghurt trick for the long term steroids, so OH and I are going to going to try and wrestle him later today. Tips and tricks welcome.

Today’s listing is a rather colourful textile inspiration bundle, based around some glittery holly leaf chiffon

Happy October everyone :slightly_smiling_face: it’s good to be joining in again. Wishing you all lots of lovely sales.

Woke to loud bangs and sirens first thing this morning - apparently a car transporter carrying electric vehicles is on fire on the M5. Somebody’s month isn’t starting well - hopefully everyone is OK.

Good morning everyone,

Big thanks Alison @FluffStuffCrafts for hosting this month, I hope there are lots of happy dances to keep you busy :slightly_smiling_face:

I think you have a typo on your description Caroline @Caroleecrafts , it says black pearl car instead of card I believe?

Hope nothing serious is pestering your furry friend Mel @aquilacrafts and good luck with the “wrestling” later on Sharon @theoldbuttonsupplies !

Here is mine for today, I actually listed it a few weeks ago, but hasn’t been loved as I wasn’t participating.
